MEMORANDUM
Q7y 2013
TO: Zoning Board of Appeals
FROM: Gene Tutag, Building Official 7
DATE: September 4,2013
SUBJECT: Variance Requests for Garage Height - 19947 W. Doyle Place Zoned R- I B
A building permit application to construct a detached garage in the rear yard of 19947W Doyle Place has
been denied. The garage would be in violation of Sections 50-5262b 3 & 5 the proposed garage is
higher than the house and is 22' in height. The ordinance limits height of an accessory structure as
follows:
b. Height, Accessory buildings ore subject to the following height restrictions:
1. One story with a maximum wall height of ten feet measuredfrom the finished grade level to the
bottom of the eaves.
2. Maximum height shall be determined by measuring the vertical distance from the finished
grade level adjoining the building to the highest point on the ridge of the roof
3. In no instance shall an accessory building be constructed higher than the principal structure on
the property.
4. In the R-1A zoning district, the maximum height of accessory buildings and structures shall be
22 feet.
5. In all other residential districts, the maximum height of accessory buildings and structures
shall be 18 feet.
Bond Built Home Improvement, on behalf of the properly owner Mr. Jim Wieme, is appealing the denial
of the permit.
The application is compliant with lot coverage and setbacks in relation to accessory structures.
The property was inspected on September 4, 2013, a few code enforcement violations were noted and will
be addressed.
The criteria for consideration of a request for a non-use variance is found in Section 50-149 of the Orosse
Pointe Woods Zoning Ordinance. The authority to authorize variances is based on the following:
1
Sec. 50-149. Variance standards.
a Dimensional or nonuse variances. The zoning board of appeals may grant a dimensional or
nonuse variance only upon a finding that compliance with the restrictions governing area, setbacks,
frontage, height, bulk, density, or other dimensional provisions would create a practical difficulty. A
finding ofpractical difficulty, based on competent, material, and substantial evidence on the record, shall
require the petitioner to demonstrate that all of the following conditions are met:
1 That strict compliance with the restrictions governing area, setbacks, frontage, height,
bulk, density, and other similar items would unreasonably prevent the petitionerfrom using the property
for a permitted purpose or would render conformity with said restrictions unnecessarily burdensome.
2 That a variance would do substantialjustice to the petitioner as well as to other
petitioners in the zoning district; or whether a lesser relaxation of the restrictions would give substantial
relief to the petitioner and be more consistent with justice to others i.e., are there other more
reasonable alternatives;
3 That the plight of the petitioner is due to unique circumstances of the property;
4 That the petitioner s problem is not self-created.
5 That the spirit of this chapter will be observed, public safety and welfare secured, and
substantialjustice done.
The petitioner's property is one of the largest lots on West Doyle Place. Due to its location on the curve
of the street the subject lot is approximately 11,692 square feet. The petitioner states that a need for a
taller door opening for travel trailers, including the unique shape of the lot, and the fact that the home on
the property is a ranch style are reasons for the granting of the variances.
A taller or 9' garage door can easily be built into a garage compliant with the is' maximum height. The
plight of the petitioner seems to be entirely self-created, The ownership of travel trailers has nothing to
do with any circumstance associated with the subject property. The large size and shape of the property
allows the construction of a garage to be larger in area than any of the surrounding properties.
Due to the applicant being unable to demonstrate any of conditions necessary for a variance to be granted,
denial of the variances of Section 50-5262b 3 & 5 is recommended.
